paper

Synopsis Joana Henshaw thought she had married the love of her life, but her world shattered when her husband, Clinton Gates, turned cold overnight. Once affectionate, Clinton now saw her as nothing more than a business transaction, blaming her for the tragic death of his twin sister. For three years, Joana endured his hatred, hoping to rekindle the love they once shared. But the final blow came when Clinton handed her divorce paper without a second thought. When all Joana’s pleas fell on deaf ears, she decided to walk away, leaving behind the wealth and prestige of the Gates family. What no one knew was that she was carrying a little secret in her womb. Years later, she resurfaced as a renowned designer desired by all and Clinton was not an exception. Clinton Gates on the other hand never expected to miss Joana, but as her absence grew unbearable, so did his suspicions. Why was she always on his mind? Why did she seem untouched by their divorce? And why, despite everything, did he feel like he had made a terrible mistake?

“You think coming here and apologizing solves it? Do you think it’s going to ease my pain? The pain you inflicted on me?” I yelled at him, my chest burning with all the pent up anger, waiting to be unleashed. Ashton reached out to touch me, but I slapped his hand away. Hurt flashed in his eyes, but I couldn’t care less. “I’m sorry, Helen. I promise to do better. Please, give me a second chance.” I scoffed. What a joke! “We are divorced, Ashton.” Ashton shook his head as if willing himself not to believe what I was saying. “I never sent you divorce papers, Hel. And…” he trailed off while I stared at him with creased brows. “We aren’t divorced. I never signed my part.” ***** For three years, Helen tried to be the perfect wife despite being labeled as incompetent, barren and worthless. She put up with her husband’s ignorance and mother-in-law’s insults for the sake of maintaining peace and keeping her marriage. But what she didn’t expect was a video of her husband in bed with his secretary on Christmas Eve when she planned to break the news of her pregnancy to him. And worse — His secretary threw a divorce paper which her husband had drafted at her face and asked her to beat it. When she couldn’t take it anymore, she left and returned six years later with dashing triplets. But what she didn’t expect was her husband wanting her back. As if that wasn’t enough, she was about to find out that there was more to what happened six years ago, and everything she thought she knew…were all lies. Will the holiday spirit be enough to bring them together again?
